"Ryuji!!"
She happily threw herself at him, burying his head straight in her chest.
And at that exact moment, Hanzo spat out another mouthful of blood.
And Ryuji immediately sensed it.
It was a very faint killing that intent appeared the moment Mai hugged him.
Its name was: the killing intent of a father-in-law!
Seeing Hanzo cough up blood again because of the lingering Satsui no Hado he had released earlier, Ryuji didn't know what to say.
After all, Mai's actual father hadn't coughed up blood. It seemed the old man who had truly raised Mai was his real father-in-law here.
Feeling Mai's excessively soft yet overly firm breasts pressing against him, Ryuji's cock suddenly sprang up. Mai's cheeks instantly turned bright red but unlike before, she didn't shy away. Instead, she deliberately turned her hips toward Ryuji's cock and began rubbing against it, guiding it right along her centerline so that it pressed perfectly against the entrance of her pussy.
The soft sensation made Ryuji's hardened cock ready to thrust forward at any moment. Mai clearly felt it as well. Her hand subconsciously moved to her chest as she looked at Ryuji, whose head was buried between her breasts. The expression on her face said everything.
And Ryuji could feel a faint warmth against his cock, it was obvious that Mai was already aroused.
Hanzo was no ordinary person. The moment he saw Mai's shy and twisting movements, he instantly understood what was happening. Seeing Mai's bashful expression, a strange mixture of sadness and anger rose in the old man's heart.
He opened his mouth to say something but the lingering Satsui no Hado surged again the instant he tried to speak and he spat out another mouthful of blood mist.
There was nothing he could do, he really couldn't hold it in. Even knowing Ryuji was their benefactor, he still couldn't endure it!
"Grandpa!!"
Mai's expression changed dramatically. She immediately stood up from Ryuji's body and rushed to Hanzo, who had collapsed again. Ryuji could only scratch his head awkwardly.
He understood that fathers-in-law naturally disliked their daughters' husbands. He had experienced it before. If Senzaemon Nakiri could have killed him without making Erina sad, the old man would have done so without hesitation back then.
Forget all that talk about bringing benefits. Just imagine it from the father's perspective: some random brat appears, sleeps with the girl you raised with your own hands, has no proper job, no security, meets your daughter and immediately starts fucking around and doesn't understand a single thing about your family business.
Putting himself in Senzaemon's shoes, Ryuji figured he'd probably feel the same.
Ryuji quickly got up. With a flick of his hand, a ball of golden flame appeared in his palm as he walked toward Hanzo, who had fallen to the ground and couldn't say a word.
"Come here, Grandpa, time for treatment."
Mai knew that Ryuji's flames had miraculous healing properties but Hanzo didn't know that. Seeing the golden fire ignite in Ryuji's hand as he walked closer, the first thought that appeared in the old man's mind was:
The adulterous couple are going to kill me.
I never imagined my granddaughter would conspire with him to murder me just so she could be with him! They want to grind my bones to dust!
His finger pointed accusingly at Ryuji. The grievance in his heart and his severe injuries made his mind muddled and he completely forgot that it was Ryuji who had resurrected him.
Or rather, his brain had already been damaged by the Satsui no Hado released by Ryuji. The Satsui no Hado wasn't something easy to deal with, especially now that Ryuji's version had fused with the Arad-world skill 'Satsui no Hado,' carrying some of that world's effects as well, making the injury even worse.
Ryuji had underestimated the effect of this move in this world. If even Hanzo had been affected when caught off guard, then those whose mental discipline was weaker would be influenced even more severely. Some might even have their own killing intent stirred the moment Ryuji glanced at them, causing it to erupt inside their bodies and leave them seriously injured.
It was even possible for them to be infected by Ryuji's killing intent and become monsters that onl knew slaughter.
However, the path Ryuji was pursuing with the Satsui no Hado wasn't centered around that kind of usage, so he didn't care much about developing this technique further.
But Mai had no idea what kind of wild thoughts her grandfather was having. When she felt him struggling, she immediately held him down firmly to stop him from moving.
"Grandpa, don't move."
She spoke with concern. But in Hanzo's muddled mind, it looked like his granddaughter wanted him dead.
"Fine… fine…"
He closed his eyes, letting the "grinning" Ryuji pour the flames into his body and even his mouth, feeling the scorching heat.
But his heart hurt even more.
"Hmm?"
Hanzo suddenly froze.
Under the effect of Ryuji's flames, his body was becoming more and more comfortable. His consciousness gradually cleared and his intelligence once again took control.
Watching the golden dragon-fire continue to burn his body, bringing both pain and healing pleasure, he looked at Ryuji with an increasingly strange expression.
After a moment of silence and seeing Ryuji still smiling at him, Hanzo asked the question he most wanted answered.
"You… aren't actually some kind of god, are you?"
He was genuinely curious. The abilities Ryuji had shown were practically divine.
Resurrecting the dead, healing injuries, terrifying combat power and the ability to resist the influence of the Satsui no Hado. If someone like that was still considered human, then what was he?
A paramecium?!
"I'm human. A genuine human being."
